Utah is a caucus state. Interesting how Cruz seems to take the caucus states compared to those where the people actually vote.

In a caucus you have no privacy of your vote and are actively met by others who want to persuade you to vote or not vote. It is the most patently UNdemocratic system ever invented. I might have been workable in the 1880's but today, it is ridiculous. link back to original

The theory is that Trump does better in primary states where voters have secret ballots. In caucus states, prying eyes of wives (or other women) see the Trump votes cast. I would like to see hard evidence that Trump does better under secret ballot voting. But is there any hard evidence that women are out to shame or punish husbands or boyfriends for voting Trump?

The nascent 'Vote Trump, Get Dumped' Campaign asks women to stage a sex strike against Trump voters. The political "lysistrategy" is not a new one and was the subject of an ancient Greek tragedy comedy: Lysistrata by Aristophanes.
